THE tallest exhibition in Dorset featuring the work of Weymouth artist Olivia Nurrish has been unveiled at the Jurassic Skyline.
The vibrant paintings of nostalgic scenes on the Jurassic Coast capture the essence of Weymouth and Portland and echo the stunning views from the Jurassic Skyline capsule.
The exhibition is now on display until September 4.
Artist Olivia, who is also director of the Artwey group, said: “You can’t live here and not be inspired. Weymouth has it all with the fantastic seafront and it has endless subject matter.”
Olivia describes her work as colourful and nostalgic, capturing what she describes ‘a fabulous part of the country’.
Laura Bell, marketing executive for SEA LIFE Adventure Park and the Jurassic Skyline discovered Olivia’s work after scouting around Weymouth and Portland for an artist to work with.
Laura said: “When we were going around, Olivia’s work really stood out.
“Her work is vibrant and stunning and portrays the great British seaside perfectly with Punch and Judy, the Jurassic Skyline and beach scenes.”
“We are delighted to be hosting her work.”
n Olivia Nurrish, Celebrating the Great British Seaside, is on display at the Jurassic Skyline from July 9 to September 4.
